Blakewater culvert, Philips Road update, week 13

December started more wintry than November (kind of what one should expect but then when was the weather predictable!). We had lots of rain last week with some torrential downpours and wind with it. Not the sort of conditions you want to be working outside on construction or riding a bike for that matter.Personally, I got wet a couple of times as there was no way to avoid the rain. The building site on Philips road looked like a quagmire but work continued regardless.

The next section of culvert got its roof.

Now the site is getting tight for room as there is so much excavated material in the way of continuing upstream.

This is the section where Knusden Brook joins from under the remaining single-file bit of Philips Road on the right.

My commute: 2.5 miles through mixed urban residential, retail and light industry. Passing two traffic lights, a major intersection, a school crossing and two mini-roundabouts seeing things and people on the way...
